All round economic growth is primary importance for us so that every citizen is able to live a life of honour and dignity in the environment of peace. The new dynamism in rural infrastructure will result in far greater prosperity for the people.

J&K has marched a great distance forward in the last three years. We have kept the wheels of progress moving to ensure that no section of society is left behind, to ensure that growth benefits marginalised groups and to ensure that prosperity brings bright future for youth.

The results of our efforts to rejuvenate rural economy are clearly visible. Farmers are receiving better prices, path-breaking schemes have been implemented to ensure social safety net for vulnerable section & PRI’s have been empowered to push forward rural development.
